Re: Catholics sue Obama over birth control mandate

I'm only a little sorry ... ... but what makes you think it's an alcoholic drink? I don't drink much of that nowadays.

There's bound to be lots of documentation, I just wasn't willing to look it up.

That's about as strong as it gets around here. And I don't mean Pepsi, either - ewww.

Heck, even some speculation that Michelle Obama's hospital was accused of that under her time there.

It's possible though I'd have to wonder why it's happening?

Re: Catholics sue Obama over birth control mandate

About to become one, isn't it? Mandating the insurance cover BC is like mandating that employers pay minimum wage.

AUSTAN GOOLSBEE:I think the world vests too much power, certainly in the president, probably in Washington in general for its influence on the economy, because most all of the economy has nothing to do with the government.

Re: Catholics sue Obama over birth control mandate

Um, No. All the experts say that at the very least the mandate in the law will be struck down. Heck, even Obama says he needs a second term to 'fix' it.

Mandating the insurance cover BC is like mandating that employers pay minimum wage.

If Minimum wage were dictated through a regulatory body with no congressional say so, then you might have a salient analogy. As it stands, you do not. What you have is a President that currently in office can not run his re election campaign on his failure of a record, so in order to pick a fight that will make headlines, turns to his HHS czar to craft this distracting regulation that will go down in court, just as his unconstitutional HC law will, all for the cynical end of pulling our eye off the fact that he is quite possibly the worst President in history. Obama will be the first President to leave office with the stigma of,

a net loss of jobs

the highest debt accumulation in the shortest time

the highest energy costs

the most corrupt administration in history

not getting a single initiative done while having a majority in both houses for his first two years.

highest dependency on welfare in history

Progressive Liberalism/Marxism is a failure in this country, and Americans don't want your statist vision of nanny state, under governmental thumb top down control of their lives, and society.

You progressives need to find that rock y'all hid under for 100 years, and crawl back under it so we can fix the mess y'all just created.

Americans are so enamored of equality that they would rather be equal in slavery than unequal in freedom.
